Banfield vs Defensa y Justicia Prediction 14.07.2025 | Clausura

• Competition: Argentina - Torneo Clausura
• Date: Monday, 14th, July 2025
• Kickoff: 23:00 UK / 00:00 CEST
• Venue: Estadio Florencio Sola (Buenos Aires)

Banfield and Defensa y Justicia will kick off their Clausura 2025 campaigns just after midnight on Tuesday at Estadio Florencio Sola, with both sides aiming to start strong.

Banfield’s Apertura campaign was, to put it mildly, a trainwreck to forget as they limped to a disappointing second-from-bottom finish with a measly haul of just 14 points, so they’ll be aiming to turn the page in Clausura 2025 and deliver a far more competitive showing.

Compared to their Tuesday opponents, Defensa y Justicia didn’t fare much better in the 2025 Torneo, especially down the stretch, as they wrapped up the campaign in 10th place with a modest tally of 19 points, falling short of a playoff berth by just two.

Banfield vs Defensa y Justicia Betting Tips : DRAW

Calling the final outcome of this tightly-contested clash is anything but straightforward, but given how evenly matched these two sides appear, a share of the spoils might well be the most balanced and fair conclusion. Home turf might remain Banfield’s only real trump card in Tuesday’s curtain-raiser, but even that could fall short considering El Halcon have come out on top in each of the last six H2H clashes at Estadio Florencio Sola, a streak that casts serious doubt over their ability to launch their Clausura campaign on a positive note. Although the Yellow-Greens have enjoyed an impressive winning streak when playing on Banfield’s turf, they’ve been stuck in a prolonged rough patch overall, enduring a staggering run of 14 competitive matches without a single victory, including eight where they ended up on the losing side. Overall, both sides have struggled to build any real momentum in recent months, and with this being the season opener, we could be in for a cagey and evenly-matched contest where a share of the spoils might prove to be the most logical outcome at this stage.
